How to increase video playback speed?

I want to increase the playback speed for Canvas videos. YouTube, TED, Audible, etc., all have this as a feature. How can this be done on Canvas?

NB: I just read a slew of negative comments on playback speed in a KODI forum, so if you don't have a constructive answer--and "you should watch when you have the time" or "you should watch as the content creator intended" are not constructive--please do not waste your time or mine. Please remember that I am paying for this content and the use of the Canvas platform and thus it is my choice to decide how I wish to consume it and most fully utilize my time.

Hi Brian VargoWelcometo the Canvas Community! I totally understand the desire to be able to do this and I do it as well for many websites. Canvas allows videos to be incorporated in various ways so I can not promise this will always work, but I use a Chrome extension called Video Speed Controller to accomplish this and there are a number of similar solutions. I just tested this and it works on videos uploaded directly to a course. Let us know if this helps. Great to have you here!

You may not understand this since you are new to this Community, but the 240,000+ members of this community are all simply Canvas users, not employees (except for I think 8 of them). They are here to help other users out of the goodness of their hearts. So please tone down your rhetoric out of respect for all these helpful folks! They are an incredible resource!

My "constructive answer" - this functionality is not currently available in Canvas, although would support embedded videos with video players if the source player include speed control.
